Note: We are a "Phase One" Mesa authorized service center. This means that there are not enough newer Mesa amps under warranty in our area. Because of this, we are not listed on their website. They will, however, give you our number if you call them and you are in our area.
Mesa has asked us to clarify that these mods are not affiliated with them or the services that they offer. Some of them have come directly from Mesa, others have been created in our shop. Mesa assumes no responsibillity for these mods. Mesa holds many patents on their amps, some of the features of their newer amps are patented and cannot be legally added to their older amps without their consent.
Some of these mods require holes to be drilled in the chassis of the amp. We try to use any existing holes before drilling to preserve the value of the amp and reversibillity of the mods. We will discuss all options with the amplifier's Owner prior to making any holes in the chassis.
We also have very strict shipping policies and requirements. This is due to the fact that there are many ways an amp can be damaged during shipping. We want to make sure that your amp arrives safely! Please call for more information.
